Editing resource files without recompiling ASP.NET application

You can achieve this, and I just did it.

Select the resource file in your project. Change the Build Action to content. Make sure that the Copy to Output Directory setting is turned OFF. When you deploy your project, the App_GlobalResources directory and your .resx file will get copied to the root of your web site. You can modify the .resx file and your live site will recognize the changes.
